Clinton: Answers on email server should have been quicker
The Hill ^ | January 25, 2016 | Lisa Hagen

Hillary Clinton on Monday night conceded she should have apologized sooner for the handling of her private email server while she was serving as secretary of State, saying she should have responded faster.

"I had no intention of doing anything other than having a convenient way of communicating and it turned out to be not so convenient," the Democratic presidential front-runner said at CNN's Democratic town hall in Des Moines, Iowa.

"So again we've answered every question and we will continue to do so. But maybe being faster - trying to scramble around to find out what all of this means - I probably should have done that quicker," she continued.

Clinton wouldn't go as far to say it was an error of judgment, arguing that "nothing that I did was wrong" and that it "was not in any way prohibited."

But she defended the timeliness of her response: "When you're facing something like that, you got to get the facts and it takes time to get the facts."

"But I think it's great. Let people sort them through, and as we've seen, there's a lot of interest, but something that took time to get done," Clinton added.

The forum is one last chance for the Democratic candidates to deliver their final pitches to voters in the Hawkeye State one week ahead of the caucuses. Recent polls show rival Bernie Sanders has cl

Hillary sure moved her butt when blaming the Benghazi terrorist assault on an internet video.

Too bad she wasn't "quicker" addressing the concerns of Ambassador Chris Stevens, he might be alive today, along with Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods, and Glen Doherty.

Is she finally answering that damned 3am phone call?

How rude of them to try to wake the Queen!

For the Clintons the truth, when it exists, is kind of rubbery.

Even parses under statements. Must be congenital. Automatically substitutes an innocuous "convienient" for illegal the first time it's used. And the switcheroo comes when it is supposed to replace legal. Amazing.

I’ll make a bet that she’s on new medication for blood pressure issues. Back fifteen years ago, I was put on some meds for such, and went through daily and even hourly coughing fits. Water and cough drops barely worked, and for about two years I thought I had some developing ailment....then came to realize it was the stupid blood pressure meds. Once I went off the blood pressure medication, within two weeks....no more coughs.

What the heck is she talking about ? Once again she has answered every question, but says she should have been quicker answering every question, before. If this was a trail, at this point the judge would throw the gavel at her. The Clinton’s have messed up the entire world. For the sake of humanity be done with them. We won the cold war, opened up the Soviet Union, and sent the Clinton’s ? No wonder the Russians hate us.

It does not matter.

if you had classified information on your email system, which you set up, which you funded, which you knew about, you have broken dozens of security laws.

Even breaking one of those would have doomed any normal government or military employee.

She is a hypocrite.

Right now, the State department is attempting to get a one month extension because of the excuse that a big snow storm closed offices over a weekend.

If granted, this would allow the release to happen after the primaries in four states and wouldn’t allow enough time for reviewers to review the release prior to super Tuesday.

If she were really sorry, she would instruct the State department to drop their demand for an extension.

The indictment should be quicker too, but it will never happen.

Did she ever see anything that was deemed classified at the time in four years in office ?

It might.

But Obama would let her walk like he recently did with the Iranians being held in Texas. In her case it will be as he flies away from the White House in Jan 2017.

“...A senior administration official said that pending the release of the American prisoners, the charges would be dropped against four Iranians awaiting trial, and three other jailed Iranians would be pardoned or have their sentences commuted...”

She's going to stick with these lies right to the end. She has already been shown to have subverted Federal Regulations for safeguarding classified information.
